(You're referring to the top-level 'format' file. FSFS repositories have
another 'format' file under the db/ directory.)

From subversion/libsvn_repos/repos.h

[[[
/* Repository format number.

   Formats 0, 1 and 2 were pre-1.0.

   Format 3 was current for 1.0 through to 1.3.

   Format 4 was an abortive experiment during the development of the
   locking feature in the lead up to 1.2.

   Format 5 was new in 1.4, and is the first format which may contain
   BDB or FSFS filesystems with a FS format other than 1, since prior
   formats are accepted by some versions of Subversion which do not
   pay attention to the FS format number.
